Different technology which ensure cable will beat ADSL hands down until BT dump the speaker wire connection.

Cables weak link is the UBR which NTL need to be continually upgrading as more customers come on line.
Like VDSL and 21cn

And obviously Cable can only beat DSL in the areas it is in. DSL will always be here as it covers a far more percentage of the UK then Cable will for a long time. Its like people saying "well you can pnly get LLU if your exchange has it". Well its the same for Cable you can only get it if a cable runs down your road
